One Brief Moment...

I miss him
that man I almost met
how can it be
that we shared a secret

in one brief moment
our eyes were windows
and in those moments
I hope for him again

his gentle spirit
whispering words
whispering words
to dreams long forgotten

his eyes like candles
in the temple
a mirror to the core of my soul

in some brief moments
we shared a secret
and in those moments
I hope for him again

Mon Amie La Rose...

On est bien peu de chose
Et mon amie la rose
Me l'a dit ce matin
A l'aurore je suis née
Baptisée de rosée
Je me suis épanouie
Heureuse et amoureuse
Aux rayons du soleil
Me suis fermée la nuit
Me suis réveillée vieille

Pourtant j'étais très belle
Oui j'étais la plus belle
Des fleurs de ton jardin

On est bien peu de chose
Et mon amie la rose
Me l'a dit ce matin
Vois le dieu qui m'a faite
Me fait courber la tête
Et je sens que je tombe
Et je sens que je tombe
Mon cœur est presque nu
J'ai le pied dans la tombe
Déjà je ne suis plus

Tu m'admirais hier
Et je serai poussière
Pour toujours demain.

On est bien peu de chose
Et mon amie la rose
Est morte ce matin
La lune cette nuit
A veillé mon amie
Moi en rêve j'ai vu
Eblouissante et nue
Son âme qui dansait
Bien au-delà des nues
Et qui me souriait

Crois celui qui peut croire
Moi, j'ai besoin d'espoir
Sinon je ne suis rien

Ou bien si peu de chose
C'est mon amie la rose
Qui l'a dit hier matin



Mon Amie La Rose... an English translation

We are truly insignificant
And that's what my friend the rose
Told me this morning

I was born at dawn
Baptised in dew
I blossomed
In the rays of the sun
Happy and in love
I closed my petals at night
And when I awoke I was old.
Yet I had been beautiful
Yes, I was the most beautiful
Of all the flowers in your garden

See, the God that made me
Now makes me bow my head
And I feel I'm falling
And I feel I'm falling
My heart is almost bare
I have a foot in my grave
Already I am nothing
You admired me only yesterday
And I shall be dust
Forever, tomorrow

We are truly insignificant
And my friend the rose
Died this morning

Last night the moon
Kept vigil over my friend
And in a dream I saw
Her soul, dancing
Dazzling and naked,
Above the heavens,
Smiling on me.
Let those who can, believe
But I need Hope
Or else I am nothing

It could have been Nina. It could have been Cat. But tonight, it's David...



Wild Is The Wind...

Love me, love me, love me, love me,
say you do,
Let me fly away with you,
For my love is like the wind,
and wild is the wind
Wild is the wind...

You touch me, I hear the sound of mandolins,
You kiss me,
With your kiss my life begins...
You're spring to me, all things to me
Don't you know you're life, itself!

Like the leaf clings to the tree,
Oh, my darling, cling to me,
For we're like creatures of the wind,
and wild is the wind...

Wild is the wind

Wild is the wind

Wild is the wind

Wild is the wind

A word of explanation for my absence from HP. Something in the workings of this place makes my computer unhappy. Everything I try to do here happens *slowly* (it's just taken me two hours to post three comments)... So I stick my head around the door now and again, but not so often, sadly.

Kisses to you all... xoxo
